I Will Set Fire to the House

I will hide the keys, I'll hide the keys, I'll hide the keys

And set fire to house

We'll watch from the car, watch from the car, watch from the car

As the ashes of our life rain down

You will turn to me, you'll turn to me, you'll turn to me

You will smile, you will say let's go

It will have never felt, it will have never felt, it will have never felt

More appropriate to say, 'where now?'

And we'll drive between the streetlights

We'll drive between the streetlights

We'll drive between the streetlights

We'll drive between the streetlights

So we'll drive away, we'll drive away, we'll drive away

And we will check into the nearest hotel

We'll use fake names, I'll be Billy James, you'll be Eliza Bell

I'll say, 'we're good for each other, we are good for each other

Yes, we are good for each other, I never fully knew that 'til right now.'

(We're good together baby, so good together, we're good together)

I'll take a cable tie and I'll grab a gun, I'll give you the other gun

Before I kiss you for a while on the mouth

(Let's stay together baby, forever baby)

And we'll sail into the hot night

We'll sail into the hot night

We'll sail into the hot night

We'll sail into the hot night

And we will steal the last piece of a giant puzzle

That had taken years to finish and could only be viewed from a 1000 feet up

(I take your face in my hands)

And we will hold the puzzle piece to ransom, ransom it for money

All the money we could ever need, in all the different currencies

(Do you tell your friends you love me, love me, love me?)

And the government will pay us with the funds that would have been invested

In a war machine, a war machine to kill the protestors

(Do I feature in your daydreams of the future?)

And they'll hail us as the heroes and we'll say it was an accident

The headlines will all read we were the 'accidental heroes,'

We'll be the accidental heroes!

And we'll dance into the sunrise

We'll dance into the sunrise
